looking to remove my a/c and heatore out of my truck since it's broken. Was wondering if anyone knows where I can buy the delete plate or if someone can please point me in the direction of someone who already has the thread started.

I will be making one shortly I do know the Normal non ac ones do not fit. The firewalls are different.

Right, most people just trim one out of a sheet of stainless, aluminum or even diamond plate. Then just pop-rivet the thing on there.

Personally, I'd just use sheet metal and paint it the same color as the firewall, then try to utilize the factory screw holes.

I might be making mine this weekend. It's supposed to rain all weekend so might as well. I'm gonna use pieces of the non ac cover and add in with sheet metal. If I do pics and stuff will be in my build thread.

They all beat me to it. Make your own. There's a couple of real good sheet metal guys on here too that can make you a fancy one with pleats and nice folded edges and such too if you're wanting to make a show truck and cleaning up your firewall, but most guys just make their own. You can caulk it or use silicone, or spray foam whatever if you wish also.
